Among the most rugged swage sleeves ESCO makes, these stainless steel swage sleeves are cast with the popular 40SS stainless steel, which was created specifically for swaging.

High initial ductility allows ESCO stainless steel to flow evenly around the wire rope during swaging, for total gripping strength and extremely high crack and fracture resistance. During swaging, ESCO stainless steel work-hardens more than any other swaging steel to provide toughness, on-the-job durability and corrosion resistance.

Ductility for even flow and high crack resistance, work hardening for resistance to abuse, and corrosion resistance make ESCO stainless steel swage sleeves the reliable, durable industry choice. 

• Duplex Sleeves
  ESCO stainless steel duplex sleeves provide the quickest, simplest way to make strong swaged turnback eyes in wire rope. Duplex sleeves permit easy adjustment of eye size. Grommets, plain eyes and tight thumbed eyes can be made quickly and precisely every time – without splicing or die changes.
  
  
• Single Sleeves
  For those who prefer Flemish eyes, ESCO offers the strength and durability of stainless steel single sleeves specifically designed for use with the Flemish eye splice. During swaging, tough stainless steel surrounds the splice, increasing the strength of the slice and preventing unlaying when the wire rope is under load. It also protects the splice, preventing damage from accidental abuse on the job. The tapered elliptical design permits easy rope insertion and encloses the wire ends.

All ESCO stainless steel sleeves swage in four pressings – each sleeve in open-channel dies. Use one-piece sleeves for 1/8" to 1" wire rope and two-piece sleeves for 1/2" to 2-1/2" wire rope. With ESCO stainless steel duplex sleeves, there simply is no faster, easier way to make tough, durable eyes in wire rope.
